This is the first film in the epic, two-part Gallic gangster saga Mesrine. Vincent Cassel (Irreversible, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Black Swan) stars as a middle-class French soldier who returns home to the neon glamor of ’60s Paris and is soon mentored by a criminal kingpin (Frenchy superstar Gérard Depardieu). Jacques Mesrine was a real dude whose life in crime became the stuff of legend. Like Scarface but real. And with an accent. I mean, a French accent. In French with English subtitles. HD Available.

Mesrine: Public Enemy #1
This is the second film in the epic, two-part Gallic gangster saga Mesrine. After being busted for his life in crime, Mesrine (Vincent Cassel) is dragged back to France. He promptly escapes from court, takes a judge hostage and is branded enemy No. 1. Thanks to some savvy manipulation of the media, he becomes a bank-robbing, lady-killing, cop-murdering superstar. This is meaty, manly, ’70s style action done up in brutal shades of blood red and shadowy black. In French with English subtitles. HD Available.
